Create a Poinsettia ornament out of a paper roll and paper.

Supplies

Step-by-Step

1. Step 1

   Apply Sticky Strip™ (or Mod Podge™ ) to the back of your patterned paper.
   
   If you use Mod Podge™, you’ll have to wait for it to dry before continuing to next step 4.

   

2. Step 2

   Attach patterned paper onto paper towel roll.

   

3. 

4. Step 3

   Flatten the paper towel roll.

   

5. Step 4

   Cut your paper towel roll into ½” slices.

   

6. You will get 11 pieces (or petals) from half of a paper towel roll, which is enough to make 2 poinsettia ornaments.

   

7. Step 5

   Apply glue to the edges of one side of the petals and place down on red mulberry paper.

   

8. Step 6

   Cut and trim each petal.
   Repeat Step 5 for the other side of the petals.

10. Step 7

    Choose a petal to be the top of the ornament and squeeze the end and punch a hole through it. This is for your ribbon.

    

11. Step 7

    Choose a petal to be the top of the ornament and squeeze the end and punch a hole through it. This is for your ribbon.

    

12. Step 8

    Apply glue dots to the sides of the petals and arrange them into a flower.

    

13. 

14. Step 9

    Apply glue to the front side edge of each petal and apply Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

    

15. 

16. Step 10

    Cut leaves out of the green mulberry paper. I used five leaves.

    

17. Step 11

    Attach the leaves to the back of the ornament in between the petals.

    

18. Add embellishment of choice to the center of the poinsettia and ribbon for hanging and you’re finished!
    
    Look how beautiful this ornament looks with lights shining from behind.
